Is it random or what? My Eevee's affection, fullness, and entertainment were all maxed out, and it it still wouldn't evolve. And then it learned Charm and evolved. Some people aren't needing a Fairy-type move to evolve or even full affection, so I'm confused as to the mechanics regarding Sylveon.

Hi guys. I made an account so that I can share this bit of info about Pokemon-amie.

I battled an NPC trainer who has a Mienfoo and I was using Wartortle with three hearts. Mienfoo used Force Palm on my Wartortle and it decreased his HP by as much as 14. When my Wartortle only has 9 HP, Mienfoo used Force Palm again.

I was expecting my Wartortle to faint but it left 1 HP. Then a text showed that my Wartortle wanted to show me that he's tough, so he endured Mienfoo's Force Palm.

The effects of Pokemon-amie is amazing! It made me feel closer to my Pokemon. Hehe that's all! Just wanted to share that.

This made my heart melt a bit. That's just adorable and awesome. Pokemon-amie is one of my favorite features. It really helps you establish a bond with your Pokemon whilst giving you new features in battle.

First, for an Eevee to evolve into Sylveon, a fairy type move is a must.

Second, according to the sources and speculation, you need "AT LEAST" two hearts in the affection since at that time they start to gain boosted experience. It can be three as well though, since at the third heart, the conversation changes from " What will Eeeve do? " to " Eevee is awaiting trainer's directions."

So I am enjoying the amie as well, didn't really think I would but it's kinda fun.

I have been playing mostly with Fennekin (Before she evolved) and Eevee, both seem to love being petted on their chests as they close their eyes, lift their chins up slightly with a smile, it reminds me how dogs love the belly rubs and have those same expressions on their faces as well.

Also just realized with Eevee, when holding the Pokepuff above or basically anywhere he can't reach, he will eventually do a cute animation when he/she lifts their paw and does a small smile as to say "Funny, now give it to me", I only just realized you had hold the pokepuff (Was wondering why Fennekin looked annoyed everytime I dropped it in front of her until I realized what it was).

I've noticed certain Pokémon like being pet in different areas. For example my Venusaur liked having his flower pet instead of his head. I like how they made it different for each Pokémon, makes them a little more unique

I was wondering. Is there a set time, say like every half hour for like 15 minutes that you have to pet , feed, and play with your pokemon on pokemon-amie? it seems like that's all that I get done. I just right now beat the first gym leader. And I just got 2 hearts and like 3 to 5 music notes. Boy, raising pokemon on x and y is just about as hard and raising really kids...Thank you all who answer my question.

What does it mean when a yellow person appears in the bottom-left corner of my screen? I try smiling but nothing happens. And why does it zoom in when this happens? .-.

It means it recognizes your face in the inner 3ds cam. If you keep it steady for a bit itll start a minigame where you can mimic your pokemon(prior to that itll mimic you). Although i can never get the "make a big smile" command to work.

First post here, enjoy! Here are some things I discovered for Poke Amie. Anecdotal evidence obviously but it has been consistent with me:

1) The more fancy looking foods grant more friendship points
2) When a pokemon is full from eating the last food it eats will be slower than normal
3) If you want to get your pokemon hungry again simply play a game or 2 with it , the hunger will drop down to almost nothing to repeat the cycle again.
4) To do the facial minigames keep your 3ds in a well lit room and about 1-2 feet from your face looking DIRECTLY at the camera. You will know its correct when the little face at the bottom left remains there (means the pokemon can see you). Start making random faces at the camera slowly until the game starts.
5) The facial mini games require you to exaggerate your actions heavily so it will notice. ( For example A smile will not count unless you show your teeth)
6) The camera has some issues detecting your eyes so you need a brightly lit room.7) The affection you get IS related to friendship. Using the game for about 20 minutes I got azurill to evolve to a marril in 5 levels.
8) Venusaur female will throw you off if you touch the seed in its flower even once x.x.

Really? I have a level 20 Riolu with max affection and it hasn't evolved

I rotate my Pokemon between my team and a PC box labeled "Combatants", so I need to know this: If you don't play Pokemon-Amie with your Pokemon for a while, say by having it in the PC for a while, do its Mon-Amie stats - particularly the Affection one, the one that (as far as I understand) grants you battle bonuses - decrease (and thus take away said bonuses)? Or, like Friendship/Happiness, does it stay put (say, put a Pokemon with Affection Level 3 in the box for a while, take it out later, it's still at AL3)?

...Come to think of it, I'm not entirely sure: does Friendship/Happiness decrease if your Pokemon's left in a box? If so, I need to get my Budew back into my party.

My Gogoat has maximum affection and after it knocks a pokemon out in battle, i can stroke its head during the battle screen by keeping my finger or stylus on the touch screen and hearts appear. It also repels status changing moves on occasion and avoids things like taunt. When this happen a heart appears above its head.

So pokemon-amie works on pokemon who require happiness to evolve.. has anyone gotten this to work for espeon/umbreon? I keep googling and people say it isn't possible.

Also,
On the subject of Sylveon. Eevee learns Baby-Doll Eyes at lv 9. It takes 2 hearts of affection to evolve into Sylveon. I've evolved a couple so far. Just useful information I found out from trial and error.
